HOSPITALIST CO-MANAGEMENT OF TRAUMA SURGERY PATIENTS REDUCES MORTALITY AND IMPROVES QUALITY MEASURES
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Trauma co-management is a growing field within hospital medicine. While improvements in quality metrics have been documented in other co-management services, the impact of co-management of trauma patients is uncertain. This study aimed to determine whether a hospitalist trauma co-management program improves clinical outcomes. Methods: This was a pre- and post-implementation study comparing trauma […]

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PATIENT HETEROGENEITY, ANTIBIOTIC TIMING, AND THE OUTCOMES OF PATIENTS WITH SEVERE BACTERIAL INFECTION
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock remain important contributors to hospital utilization, morbidity and mortality in the United States. Timely interventions including blood cultures, intravenous crystalloid infusions, and antibiotics make up the 3-hour sepsis bundle which represents current standard of practice, and the target of hospital quality reporting. Many aspects of sepsis care are […]

PORTABLE ULTRASOUND DEVICE USAGE AND LEARNING OUTCOMES AMONG INTERNAL MEDICINE TRAINEES: A PARALLEL-GROUP RANDOMIZED TRIAL
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Little is known about how to effectively train residents with point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) despite increasing usage. This study sought to assess whether handheld ultrasound devices (HUDs), alongside a year-long lecture series, improved trainee image interpretation skills with POCUS. Methods: Internal medicine intern physicians (n=149) at a single academic institution from 2016-18 participated in the […]

BENEFITS OF A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL-ACADEMIC UNIVERSITY PEDIATRIC PARTNERSHIP
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Academic children’s hospitals are increasingly partnering with community hospitals to provide inpatient neonatal and pediatric care in the patient’s own community. Although some academic hospitals are hesitant to form these partnerships due to concern for decreasing incoming transfers, few studies report the true effect of such collaboration. Our strategy involved such a partnership that […]

IMPACT OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE ON SHORT-TERM IN-HOSPITAL OUTCOMES IN TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT(TIPS) PROCEDURES
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation is a commonly utilized procedure used for patients with chronic liver disease and resistant portal hypertension. Previous studies have explored the trends and short-term outcomes in TIPS procedures. This study aims to further compare short-term in-hospital outcomes of patients with chronic kidney disease when undergoing TIPS. Methods: This […]

IMPACT OF COAGULATION DISORDERS ON SHORT-TERM IN-HOSPITAL OUTCOMES IN TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT(TIPS) PROCEDURES
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation is a commonly utilized procedure used for patients with chronic liver disease and resistant portal hypertension. Previous studies have explored the trends and short-term outcomes in TIPS procedures. This study aims to further compare short-term in-hospital outcomes of patients with coagulation disorders when undergoing TIPS. Methods: This retrospective […]

IMPACT OF DIABETES MELLITUS ON SHORT-TERM IN-HOSPITAL OUTCOMES IN TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT(TIPS) PROCEDURE
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation is a commonly utilized procedure used for patients with chronic liver disease and resistant portal hypertension. Previous studies have explored the trends and short-term outcomes in TIPS procedures. This study aims to further compare short-term in-hospital outcomes of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) when undergoing TIPS. Methods: This […]

REGIONAL VARIATION IN OUTCOMES AND HEALTHCARE UTILIZATION IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS FOR SYNCOPE
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: The approach to managing and admitting patients with syncope in an emergency setting lacks standardization. Our study aims to investigate how regional variation in management of emergency department (ED) patients presenting with syncope impacts outcomes and resource utilization in this patient population. Methods: We used the 2006 to 2014 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample to […]

INTER-HOSPITAL TRANSFER MORTALITY FOR STEMI PATIENTS: A RETROSPECTIVE LOOK AT A TERTIARY TRANSFER FACILITY IN CENTRAL TEXAS
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions (STEMI) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Inter-hospital transfers (IHT) are becoming the standard for treatment of ST-elevation myocardial infarctions (STEMIs) as specialized care is often concentrated at tertiary centers. The American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology (AHA/ACC) recommends door-to-balloon time […]

RISK FACTORS FOR READMISSION AFTER UNSTABLE ANGINA: A FIVE-YEAR NATIONWIDE ANALYSIS
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Unstable Angina (UA) is a common subset of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and presents as atypical chest pain without the presence of cardiac biomarkers. It accounts for nearly 550,000 hospital admissions each year in the United States [1]. Management of UA can vary depending on the physician and/or intensity of symptoms. Prior studies have […]
